    Stiffness Modeling of a 2-Dof Over-Constrained Planar Parallel Mechanism
    (Elsevier, 2023) Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Kiper, Gökhan
    Stiffness model acquisition of over-constrained parallel mechanisms is relatively difficult since they have more than necessary kinematic loops. In this study, a stiffness modeling solution for over-constrained parallel mechanisms is proposed while considering the computational cost efficiency. Three contributions of the paper are: (1) Presenting the stiffness modeling procedure for serially connected closed-loop structures by using the Virtual Joint Method (2) Considering the effect of dynamic auxiliary forces and dynamic external forces on the mobile platform's deflection and achieving a direct solution by using superposition principle (3) A model fitting procedure for modifying the stiffness coefficients to comply with the experimental data. A 2 degrees-of-freedom over-constrained parallel mechanism is investigated as a case study. However, the proposed stiffness model is 6-DoF since compliant deflections occur in any direction. A finite element analysis and an experimental study verify the model's results.

    Time Efficient Stiffness Model Computation for a Parallel Haptic Mechanism Via the Virtual Joint Method
    (Elsevier, 2020) Carbone, Giuseppe; Görgülü, İbrahimcan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    Haptic devices are used for displaying a range of mechanical impedance values to the user. This impedance is regulated by a real-time control loop depending on the position information of the end-effector, which is usually acquired indirectly by using forward kinematics equations. Nevertheless, the kinematic model is insufficient to obtain accurate values if there are non-negligible compliant displacements. This gives a strong motivation for implementing a real-time stiffness model in the haptic control loop for improving its accuracy. Additionally, stiffness performance indices can be used at the design stage for enhancing the haptic devices impedance range within optimal design procedures. Fast solutions of a stiffness model are required for a real-time control as well as for decreasing the optimization time during a design process with a trade-off between accuracy and computational costs. In this study, we propose a computation time-efficient stiffness analysis of a parallel haptic device mechanism. The accuracy and computational costs of the proposed model are calculated and compared with a model that is obtained via a finite element method to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach with the desired real-time and accuracy performance.

    Geometrical Analysis of a Continuously Variable Transmission System Designed for Human-Robot Interfaces
    (Elsevier, 2019) Mobedi, Emir; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    New robotic systems are placed out of their constrained workspaces in order to work alongside humans. Consequently, these applications call for robots monitoring and regulating physical human-robot interaction. These robots’ mechanical compliance should be varied when they are in physical contact with the human or their changing environments. This compliance variation can be achieved in a variety of ways. However, one common idea is the variation of joint stiffness mechanically, electromechanically or by control. The solution presented in this paper is an electromechanical way of varying the joint stiffness. Among the electromechanical methods for varying the joint stiffness, continuously variable transmission (CVT) systems can be used in human-robot interfaces if a set of design criteria are met. These criteria include backdrivability, independent output position and stiffness variation, shock absorbing and low mass/inertia. In this paper, a novel two-cone CVT design with a double spherical transmission element is introduced by taking into account the abovementioned criteria. Additionally, design parameters are identified via carrying out a geometrical analysis of this new CVT system.

    Function Generation With Two Loop Mechanisms Using Decomposition and Correction Method
    (Elsevier, 2017) Kiper, Gökhan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Maaroof, Omar W.; Özkahya, Merve
    Method of decomposition has been successfully applied to function generation with multi-loop mechanisms. For a two-loop mechanism, a function y = f(x) can be decomposed into two as w = g(x) and y = h(w) = h(g(x)) = f(x). This study makes use of the method of decomposition for two-loop mechanisms, where the errors from each loop are forced to match each other. In the first loop, which includes the input of the mechanism, the decomposed function (g) is generated and the resulting structural error is determined. Then, for the second loop, the desired output of the function (f) is considered as an input and the structural error of the decomposed function (g) is determined. By matching the obtained structural errors, the final error in the output of the mechanism is reduced. Three different correction methods are proposed. The first method has three precision points per loop, while the second method has four. In the third method, the extrema of the errors from both loops are matched. The methods are applied to a Watt II type planar six-bar linkage for demonstration. Several numerical examples are worked out and the results are compared with the results in the literature.

    Function Synthesis of Bennett 6r Mechanisms Using Chebyshev Approximation
    (Elsevier, 2014) Alizade, Rasim I.; Kiper, Gökhan; Bağdadioğlu, Barış; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    This study focuses on approximate function synthesis of the three types of overconstrained Bennett 6R mechanisms using Chebyshev approximation. The three mechanisms are the double-planar, double-spherical and the plano-spherical 6R linkages. The single-loop 6R mechanisms are dissected into two imaginary loops and function synthesis is performed for both loops. First, the link lengths are employed as construction parameters of the mechanism. Then extra construction parameters for the input or output joint variables are introduced in order to increase the design points and hence enhance the accuracy of approximation. The synthesis formulations are applied computationally as case studies. The case studies illustrate how a designer can compare the three types of Bennett 6R mechanisms for the same function. Also we present a comparison of the spherical four-bar with the double-spherical 6R mechanism and show that the accuracy is improved when the 6R linkage is used.
